For clients, web-based Secure Mobile Access customizable user portals enable users to access, update, upload,
and download files and use remote applications installed on desktop machines or hosted on an application
server. The platform also supports secure web-based FTP access, network neighborhood-like interface for file
sharing, Secure Shell versions 1 and 2 (SSHv1) and (SSHv2), Telnet emulation, VNC (Virtual Network Computing)
and RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) support, Citrix Web access, bookmarks for offloaded portals (external Web
sites), and Web and HTTPS proxy forwarding.
The Secure Mobile Access network extension client, NetExtender, is available through the Secure Mobile Access
Web portal through an ActiveX control on Windows or using Java on MacOS or Linux systems. It is also available
through stand-alone applications for Windows, Linux, and MacOS platforms. The NetExtender standalone
applications are automatically installed on a client system the first time the user clicks the NetExtender link in
the Virtual Office portal. NetExtender enables end users to connect to the remote network without needing to
install and configure complex software, providing a secure means to access any type of data on the remote
network. NetExtender supports IPv6 client connections from Windows systems running Vista or newer, and from
Linux clients.
